I've never seen a diamond in the flesh. I cut my teeth on wedding rings in the movies. And I'm not proud of my address, in the torn up town. No post code envy.
I think of all the places I've been. It always comes down to one thing. The only place I want to be is with you. . I think of all the faces I've seen.
All around me are familiar faces. Worn out places, worn out faces. Bright and early for their daily races. Going nowhere, going nowhere. . Their tears are filling up their glasses.
James Taylor. Someone turn the time on. Another day, dead and gone. A lifetime is slippin' away, babe. But as far as I can see. That doesn't apply to you and me.
She was my only one, love me till kingdom come. She took me to that place I've never been before. Her body in the night revealed by candle light. Her Spanish eyes would shine like a diamonds on the shore.
If a picture paints a thousand words. Then why can't I paint you?. The words will never show, then you I've come to know. If a face could launch a thousand ships.
everyday it's getting closer. going faster than a roller coaster. a love like yours would surely come my way. everday seems a little faster. all my friends they say go on up and ask her.
Nineteen, the number on his back. Voted captain of the high school football team. Took us all the way to state. Got a scholarship to play down in Tennessee.
James Taylor & Zachary Wiesner. Where I've been. You don't know. And what I've got. Baby, it don't show. Now, I won't try. To teach you how. Don't talk now.
I don't know you, but I want you. All the more for that. Words fall through me and always fool me. And I can't react. . And games that never amount. To more than they're meant.
New found freedom, I'm leaving the past behind. New found freedom, making up for lost time. Dug a little deeper, moved it on down the line. Must've been sleepin', it's about time I opened my eyes.
Here come old flattop, he come grooving up slowly. He got joo-joo eyeball, he one holy roller. He got hair down to his knee. Got to be a joker he just do what he please.
John Lennon, Paul McCartney. I've got a good reason. For taking the easy way out. I got a good reason. For taking the easy way out. She was a day tripper.
Nice to meet you, where you been?. I could show you incredible things. Magic, madness, heaven, sin. Saw you there and I thought. Oh my God, look at that face.
You drive me insane but I like it. I like it like that. I don't need a sign 'cause I see it. When I look into your eyes. . I can't explain but it feels good.
I look around this room and feel the pull of tender years. Before we knew enough to be afraid of all our fears. Baby there was no corner we couldn't fight our way out of.
Where do you go with all of those scars. They read like a map. They tell you right where you are. Can you still relate?. Do you want to?. . What do you see when you turn out the lights?.
James Taylor. Come on, baby, while the moon is high. Kick up your heels and dance. Don't be nervous, don't be shy. And give yourself a chance. You can dance.
Living For the City. . A boy is born in hard time mississippi. Surrounded by four walls that ain't so pretty. His parents give him love and affection.
Take to the highway won't you lend me your name. Your way and my way seem to be one and the same. Mamma don't understand it. She wants to know where the boys been.
